S. Barnes & CoT I agree with the Herald, "As a rule all school books are good; and there is not sufficient superiority in any classes to justify frequent and expensive changes." Before dismissing I would here suggest, for consideration, the propriety as soon as practicable of th1) publication of our own school books, gotten up by our own teachers and professors, and adapted to our own ideas and wauls, tbus guarding ourselves against the de signs of unscrupulous manipulators, wlio would fasten themselves upon us tor the purpose of bleeding tbe people, in the interest of their insatiable greed and rapacity. 8ome parties have suggested that their statements he confidential. In this matter I have asked no one's confidence and do not propose to entertain anything private on so important and public a question as that involved iu the use ot books in our common schools. It has been asked, ' What shall the schools do who are now in want of bookfc?" I would suggest that the National Readers and Monteith's Geographies now in use could be had as before uetii gome decision is had by the Con vemion, or otherwise, aud, should there be a change afterwards made, they could be exehanged on the terms above mentioned and little inconvenience accrue Respectfully, etc., 3VXoroli.caaadoo. b20 ioca PEEBLES' DRUG STORE! i TOILETS AND C.
